Hi all
Is it me, cuz im not seeing the 'desire s' listed on the htcdev.com as an option to unlock the boot loader?
All I want to do is root my stock Rom. Not interested in trying any other roms.

It's not listed but it works. Just select the bottom option "Other Supported Devices" and follow the procedure
Does this procedure get around s-on also ?
Concerns me why they haven't listed it.
Sent from my HTC Desire S using xda premium
No, your device will be s-on, but the bootloader will be unlocked. It's almost the same.
I have no clue why they haven't listed it either.....
Can you still root with s-on ?
Sent from my HTC Desire S using xda premium
After you unlock bootloader via htcdev.com, yes you can
Thanks for your help. One last question, how do you root the installed rom?

Look for SuperOneClick in here, it will easily root your rom
Sent from somewhere around the globe using XDA app on my HTC Desire S
I unlocked the bootloader via htcdev.com (operation was OKAY).
SuperOneClick 2.2 hangs at step 7.
I'm guessing that you have a hboot 2.00...
When u used HTC.dev to unlock your HTC desire s you need to Install cwm or 4ext and then you can flash any Rom you like.
After flashing your HTC with the new Rom you need to fastboot the boot.img to your device cause your device is not S-off.
An other option would be downgrading. Do a few searches and you will be fine.
Otherwise post back and I'll help you out.

Hello,
Thank you for your help.
Yes I have the HBOOT 2.00.002 - Android 2.3.5
In the post : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1390496
"dtronics" suggests 2 operations to do for s-offing for the Desire S :
1 - unlocking the bootloader (htcdev.com)
2 - using SuperOneClick 2.2
The second treatment hangs at 7th step.
Without downgrading the hboot (2.00.002):
If you have a link to a simple and complete documentation to doing s-OFF.
Thank you
Dos bootloader unlock deletes all personal apps, contacts, files or not?
Superoneclick 2.3.3 roots desire s?
Thx for help

I unlock bootloader and root, install recovery, then it deletes all contacts and file in internal storage, not delete file in sd card
In the drop down list choose other supported phones

What's better to do if I want to flash roms, htcdev unlock or S-OFF? I mean, do I have to do both, or just one, and what's better?
And what should I use, EXT4 recovery or ClockworkMod Recovery? Tnx
I would choose downgrading if necessary and S-OFF. The main disadvantages of the htcdev method are the loose of warranty and the need to flash manually the boot image every time you change the rom.
I personally like 4ext but CWM is also very good.
Next time you need some info gry to search the forum, this things were allready discussed.
As a mather of fact i don't think there's a thing left undiscussed in here.

Thanks a lot!

The method has been shared and posted so many times that I would suggest you simply read the stickies and the indexes and use the search function as well.
Maybe I am ignorant...but I couldn't find a method to root my phone.. could be the hboot 2.02.002 the cause?
And anyway.. I belive that this is a helping forum.. or not?

Actually XDA is a Developers forum - that was the key purpose for its creation. Yes, you can come here and ask for help; but I am suggesting that you read the information that is freely available so that you understand what you are doing and why - and how to get out of any problems you might encounter.

That method is notorious for needing multiple attempts before working. Try it a few more times.
Try using this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1644167 , if still doesnt work try unlocking the bootloader using htcdev.com select onex at&t model then follow the steps carefully and flash custom recovery

That method only works for 1.73 and 1.82 bases. Also, AT&T is blocked on htcdev.

Disclamer:
I did not develop the Rumrunner s-off, and this is not an official Rumrunner thread.
This thread is here to spread the information to s-off easily.
Note: If HTCDEV UNLOCK is failing because of new motherboards after replacement, the only way to s-off is here . No!!!!
It is said to work EVEN WITH TEMPROOT!!! Go to this thread, temp root your device, and do the following instructions!!
Please test it and report to confirm if it really works, thanks!!
SCARED or TIRED of the wire trick to s-off using Juopunutbear S-OFF??
Don't make yourself so nervous and lose patience!! The Rumrunner s-off is working on the sensation.
Instructions:
Go download the universal HTC device version here. http://rumrunner.us/downloads-2/
Follow the instructions here. http://rumrunner.us/instructions/
Profit!!!
※※ I tried this on ARHD with stock kernel and it's not working, but it's working flawlessly with ViperS 5.1.0. Maybe it is something to do with kernel (I don't really know).
Quick link to ViperS thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2531054
Maybe it will work on other roms, try and tell me the results.
Although it was not said in rumrunner website, I recommend to do a full backup and do the procedures after a clean flash to avoid problems.
Feel free to post questions here. :laugh::laugh::laugh:
Happy S-OFFing!!! :good::good::good:

Thanks, I'll try
It works!
Thank you for this awesome tool! i had been looking for about a million years now on how to s-offwithout the pain of wiretrick..coz my hboot is 1.29. and somebody here, a subscriber of the ViperS5.1.0 rom thread gave me this tip..and so i tried and volla! i am now S-OFF..painlessly easy. but i had to watch a rumrunner tut video on YouTube (doing it on an HTC One) coz i was confused why the tool can't detect my phone despite meeting all the fastboot requirements (my copy of @Hassoon2000's sensation 4G all in one kit can detect my phone) and realized that i don't need to be on fastboot mode. so now after sorting out the culprit, i succeeded. and now my device is s-off after a million years! :good:

Stock 4.0.3 you mean (senny can't have 4.0.4. ). Yep. Tested by one of my members on my htc sensation/xe/4g group..but for ***LOCKED*** devices you need to do temproot.bat first. I and a fellow admin of that group are writing a guide for that..for both locked and unlocked phones.
